Riverbanks Zoo/Saluda River spot

[Scattman]

Anybody have directions or coordinates to the spot on the river?

I will be coming through Columbia on I-26 in a couple weeks on the way back from NC.

Exit onto Greystone Blvd and turn left at the stop sign. That will take you to the end of Greystone really quick like...where you will turn RIGHT (turning left takes you to the zoo). After turning right you will be on Candi Lane and go a couple hundred yards where the parking lot will be on the left.



Heres what the place looks like as you approach it...

Park in the gravel area just past the century 21 sign. From there directly behind the offices there is a path to the river; down the hill over the rail road tracks there is a system of trails that all lead to the river. The crawl spot is probably within 100yards of the parking lot.

I'll try and get some coordinates.

I'll be hitting this spot up this weekend. I will be coming through around lunchtime on Sunday as I am heading back to FL from NC.

Anybody up for a run? I want to try the rig on some new terrain. "thumbsup"

Mike came through with the rock crawler course. It has four sides and can be elevated to make it more difficult. the plane is to go up one side and down the other. its been rino line to give some traction. but looks to be fun. mabye it will get some more people intrested.
It will be out this sunday
